The most incredible wedding planners you can hire!

My husband and I were so stressed when thinking about planning our wedding in Hawaii as we are from Chicago, we knew whoever we picked for full-service planning had to be incredible as this was going to be a big task planning a wedding for 115 guests from another state 9 ½ hours away.

We booked several calls with different planners and Brianna was our first call, we ended up cancelling a few of the final calls because we knew right away that’s who we wanted, on the call Brianna was kind, informative and to the point. We told her how nervous we were and how we didn’t think it would be easy and she was so unbothered by all of the details we gave her, she just kept saying no problem, we can handle it.

I am a very detail-oriented person, I work in the hospitality/culinary industry and have high expectations. Brianna knew this and assured me every step of the way that everything was going to be perfect, she answered all of my texts within 24 hours, all emails and any issue that popped in my head, she helped me. We worked with Brianna and her team for 1 year basically before the wedding and honestly, she became like family.

The detail and amount of time we wanted put into our wedding was A LOT, but Brianna went above and beyond to ensure whatever we needed she and her team could handle, if it wasn’t something her and her team could do, she always had a solution. She worked with all of the vendors, figured out behind the scenes issues that we didn’t even know about until after the fact (saved us tons of stress and money). We can’t say enough about Brianna and her team, she even still messaged us after the wedding.

We got married at Kualoa Ranch, Jumanji and it is up on a mountain (no water, generators, bathrooms, etc.) we planned every single detail and even the things we forgot or didn’t think about, Brianna helped us through it, which wasn’t easy as we had SO many vendors we wanted and 115 guests.

The team gives you tools (budget tracker, day of organization, seating chart, and so much more) in a drive and keeps everything organized for you and anything we needed to change she updated flawlessly.
Brianna spent time traveling to each of our vendors taking pictures for us, ensuring we knew what everything would look like, reassuring me every step of the way. Every new idea I came up with and wanted to do, she assisted us every step of the way. We had an issue on the way to the wedding with a couple guests missing the bus (all of the parents of bride and groom) lol which would usually cause a HUGE issue, but Brianna handled it with grace, ensuring we had enough extra time in the timeline and then messaging with the transportation company after the fact to ensure that we were not charged.

Up until the day, we had tons of shipments going to Brianna, she would go pick these up in her free time and store them in the warehouse and take pictures for us and keep all of our shipments organized, we stayed with all of our family a week before the wedding and Brianna even met us a couple times before the rehearsal and wedding to pick up/drop off items to us. (at many different times, she was so incredibly flexible and kind)

On the day of, when I pulled up, I cried because not only was it everything we imagined but it was so much more, the day ran by so smoothly and Brianna kept everyone on schedule, especially after my husband and I had added so much more to the day than what we had originally said.

Every single guest who was there told us after that it was the most beautiful wedding they had ever been too, and everything was flawless.

If we haven’t convinced you already from the above, don’t look anywhere else, Charming Events is who you want to book, I promise, you won’t regret it!

In-House Coordination at The Charming Estate

We used Charming Events Hawaii for in-house coordination at The Charming Estate. Heather was our lead coordinator with Lauren as her assistant for the day. I really wanted a good timeline to maximize our photography hours, and Heather made sure everything was running right on schedule. Our coordinators did a great job organizing our larger group photos and making our guests feel welcome at our wedding. They also took care of all of our DIY setup and take down at the end of the evening so my family and wedding party didn’t have anything to worry about.

The Charming Estate package included 4-month coordination services, so I had already booked most of our vendors by the time Heather took over. However, she did a great job taking over vendor communication and setting up services with vendors contracted through the venue package (DJ, Emcee, Officiant). We had a couple of cultural elements (breaking of Japanese Sake Barrel) that had not been done at our venue before, but Heather helped work out logistics with venue staff and coordinate everything to bring our vision to life. We are so happy we trusted Heather and Charming Events with our wedding day!

A Truly Charming Experience

We had the pleasure of working with Bri and her team for about a year leading up to our wedding, and we truly couldn’t recommend her more. From our monthly check-ins to quite literally saving our wedding from being canceled, Bri took incredible care of us every step of the way. Even during the most stressful moments, we always felt at ease knowing she had everything under control.

The venue itself is absolutely beautiful, with a stunning outdoor setting that captures the best of Hawaii’s landscape. Every detail, from the ceremony space to the getting-ready rooms, was thoughtfully designed. While we hadn’t originally planned to use this venue (our outdoor wedding was canceled due to the storm), it would have easily been our first choice.

Thank you again to Bri and the Charming Events team for making our special day truly unforgettable.

Charming Events Saved our Wedding

Brianna and her team are absolutely phenomenal and I couldn’t recommend them enough. From planning process to wedding day, everything went so smoothly despite everything thrown at us. Long story short, our wedding happened the weekend of the Kona Low (biggest storm that Hawaii has seen in years). Our wedding venue cancelled 24 hours before we were supposed to say “I do” and Brianna handled EVERYTHING like the hero she is. She was able to get us married the same weekend, got us a new venue within minutes and got all our vendors to arrive on the new wedding day, Sunday (since the wedding got canceled on Saturday). Even through all the stress and the unknowns, Bri was our rock the entire time! She made sure we were part of every decision being made and kept us updated on everything happening. We were never left in the dark about anything.
I would hire Bri and charming events again in a heartbeat. Her team not only plans and runs a wedding seamlessly, but with also so much heart and care.
Thank you Bri and Charming Events team for everything! Truly, you are the best of the best!

The absolute best!!

I hired Charming Events Hawaii for their day-of coordination services, where they take over communication with vendors/make sure loose ends are tied up, a month before the wedding. Once they stepped in, I immediately felt a wave of relief! Taylor was assigned as my lead coordinator and I can’t thank her enough for how amazing she has been from start to finish. Through our multiple meetings, she’s been so supportive, easy to talk to, dependable, professional, and so organized. Any last minute changes or issues? No problem. Taylor made sure it was noted and taken care of. She also made helpful recommendations when needed. My husband and I truly had the best day ever at our wedding. Better than we ever dreamed. And it’s all thanks to Taylor and her wonderful team. Hiring Charming Events Hawaii was one of the best decisions we made and I will always rave about them when asked about my wedding 💖💖

Cronin Wedding

The Charming Estate was the perfect one-stop venue for a awesome wedding! They offered two packages to include various items to meet our budget with an exceptional team of professionals. The outdoor Deck for the wedding ceremony was absolutely gorgeous, a private bridal party room to get dressed, and reception room to accommodate 160 pax, delicious appetizers during the cocktail hour, and dinner buffet cooked to perfection.

Overall Awesome Service!

We just had our wedding a couple weeks ago and it was absolutely a dream come true! Charming Events coordinator Heather along with her team was so helpful along this stressful journey. Heather was very caring and supportive of my ideas, and helped tremendously with any communication with the other vendors a few weeks coming up to the wedding. Everything went smooth on the wedding day, and whatever little hiccups occurred Heather and her team would handle the situation. We really appreciated all the help with the setting and cleaning up of our receptions. They were all very sweet and would DEFINITELY recommend them to all my family and friends with their future wedding planning!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
